Nanohybrid-based Detection and Separation

Participants focus on molecular interactions on or within nanohybrid-based devices, built upon the discoveries within the first two research clusters to develop sensing and separation devices able to address challenges of importance in providing clean water, improving health and wellness, and reducing environmental hazards and enhancing national security.

This cluster combines the most vibrant and emerging areas of research in CNFM. Selected research focii of participants are highlighted below.

Participants currently exploit new instrumentation capable for simultaneous separation as well as imaging of molecular interactions on 3-D nanostructures. This research may lead to new approaches in chromatography.
